Almost a month had gone by since the attack at the casino. Kalon hadn't set foot inside of the estate since he ordered his guards to take me back from the safe house and left without another word.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoFBwqhCRmP
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡojrA3Are7W
I wasn't sure what to really make of him at this point or the feeling he caused when he was around. I couldn't help the thoughts that filled my head with some sick fantasy I had of being with my boss. The man who flipped my life upside down...and very possibly the reason why my brother was murdered in the first place.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvhaEFmJ1m
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoIxLfXgrls
As the days passed, I did my best to keep distracted since Naomi wasn't around to boss me. May had kept me great company and even allowed me to assist with some of her daily chores.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHYUhQeqd3X
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRHrCqHL5r
Keeping busy with her had helped me try to keep my mind off of Kalon and that moment between us in his hotel room. I wasn't sure what his motive was, but all I knew is he was confusing as hell. He always seemed so cryptic and cold.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6HroCHHAP
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMPcw2lH33L
And then the next he was unleashing a desire inside of me like nothing I've felt before.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡImgOIVdNGt
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1jDNR8W0V2
I just wanted to keep him out of my head and focus on anything else. Thankfully, I got lucky one day and was able to finally get Landon to talk to me.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMIEXRPs5R
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvDOsoqxiTS
One day, I noticed him outside by the tennis fields so I took it upon myself to corner him and force him to listen to my apology. It went better than I had expected and he admitted he had really missed having me around.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuv2uQygNxo
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ56DLJ4x0DQ
To make it even better, big brother Jax was even starting to warm up to me. I'd catch him giving me sneaky little glares when he'd enter the kitchen and find his brother and I howling over some dumb ass Youtube video we'd find. I could tell he wanted to keep me away from potentially causing any trouble for Landon with the boss, but the blow-up from him never came.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2P1WF8YZz
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdpvlMOZBxZ
It was nice having Landon around again and the newcomers who recently arrived. Liam, Samuel, and Finn were the three newest additions to the home who apparently had a history with Landon and his brother. They were all older and had the same rich, pretty boy vibes as Jax did. Despite the manor turning into a literal frat house, I was grateful to have some entertainment.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnD8xSG4jhp
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnqyt82RLVp
"So what are we doing today?" I nudged Landon's side.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2cBbPQmqdi
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTmaOFJMqI
He eyed me carefully. "Same as always...right?"392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgz4icpetIf
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFoXYiDuPa
I sighed and leaned onto my elbows. "Right."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCFJoUzlxc5
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3DT1M4kWJ0
"Don't be so down, Robbie. You know the weather right now is perfect to take advantage of the pool. "May said cheerfully, setting out sandwiches on the counter.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeP4ptAZvq1
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qefzrAysP
"I know, I just wish we had more to do," I whined pitifully.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUZKbTYDb3
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzT4tTm4nUm
"When don't you complain?" Jax scoffed as he entered the kitchen. He picked up a sandwich from the island and took a bite. "Aren't there plenty of chores for you to do?"392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ8pQqG9hFR
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRoC4mJW7vH
"Okay, mom."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDxzpp433H
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡztjECNGxM3
He rolled his eyes and continued to walk past the three of us with his mouth stuffed with cheese and ham as he left again.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZxNLaDTMb
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeWaWPTULLI
That was usually how our brief interactions went. I'd get some kind of insult usually and then he'd disappear. Whatever attraction Jax had for me, in the beginning, was long gone after the club night.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWCe5dKRYb
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOoptiKK6Kw
I reached out to grab a sandwich from the tray on the counter but stopped when a hand knocked mine away with a painful slap and snatched it.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTE6E2a2Giq
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJ3zjIyQIM
"Hey!" I snapped and rubbed the back of it. "I was grabbing that."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI0NABBb1eC
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBz2lWCH1e
"Too slow, Quinn." Samuel smiled widely and took a large bite. His dark eyes were shielded by a college baseball cap that contained his wild, ginger locks.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiAvmijZoox
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPb4qL5zyUu
Out of the new boys to the group, Samuel had certainly been the most annoying so far. Each day was met with him causing a fistfight with the others over dumb shit like someone taking the last beer or starting some argument over a football team. He usually made up for it with his sick sense of humor and crude sex stories.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzLnQXEfGmE
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKthzCvBks
"Ladies go first," May scolded him and he smiled sheepishly.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7sg7topYep
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnLhNxMNfL
"Sorry."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv0vCk25FVv
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUA48dXbOgL
"It's fine," I muttered and finally picked my sandwich from the plate. "Where are Finn and Liam?"392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9D0Ow4s2o7
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsIm1F0ZfX1
He shrugged, "Probably on the way. I know Liam was on the phone with his girlfriend."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJI3hFCJRy
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84eW1ipAmo
This was news to me. "Liam? Liam has a girlfriend?"392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqYvxv16kmZ
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1tOe3a3YIy
"I'm not that bad looking."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQwOKnwyJi
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxwELtuM2HW
All of us turned to see Liam walking into the room with Finn. He could definitely pass as another Jax. He had the same light blonde hair with a slight curl and green eyes. The only difference was he was at least 5 years older and had tattoos scattered on each arm. 392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo2Z7ZkqZEp
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyw1DMj45CB
Finn was the youngest of them and so far the sweetest. He was a tall, lanky kid with black shaggy hair and a weird scar over his left eye. He was the only one who ever stayed behind to help with cleaning up after everyone else.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLh0ByLz78y
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovylh20bCs
"Keep telling yourself that," Samuel howled and Liam tossed a chip at him.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFoHNY1pqP
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJQDf3xP1M
May slapped him on the back, "No messes!"392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBAaAi9roP
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaxRF1qYKHP
"Sorry, May." They said in unison. 392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAGfRkWLz8e
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZKVoJvf4Lm
Samuel looked up at me as he took another bite. "So, Quinn, have you been to the family club yet?"392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1wz9G4jchw
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ94i4rnkhJD
"Uh...the what?" I laughed.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGzORZNfL7
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs6Hojq0Prs
He rolled his eyes, "The main club the family owns? Girls, alcohol, dr-"392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdwBJyb6xFp
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCnkMP9ripp
Landon cut him off. "Robbie has already had her share of club adventures. Mr. Wolfe doesn't want her getting involved."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6CzNdVj7c
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXVOtSbCcIo
"I heard all about her little adventure that got Carlos-"392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7XWXFNVFCp
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyyFunGBmqA
"Can you just shut the fuck up?" Landon snapped harshly.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfS5Ciz6JaP
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF5EHbONT0d
Samuel glared at him but didn't say another word. I was completely taken back by Landon's display of anger. He had never been one to stand up for himself and just always seemed to mold to whatever was going on.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3wLPN0j6U
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTSELVCIOKw
"Landon? What's wrong?" I whispered to him and he shook his head.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOzzw6fas2b
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRfdN9EbLSC
"I don't want to get into it."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7MCf1gbYx
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKc3K9Cau0L
"Don't keep things a secret," I sighed and picked at my crust. "I'm not going to push you into anything, but I also deserve to know what goes on around this place."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAKlzwlx9yS
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBtNj5MEQoY
He sat silently and stared at his hands in his lap. Something about his expression felt so unsettling and I wasn't sure if it was because Carlos had been brought up or because of all the trouble I had caused him.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhuLjncJS4R
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlHtuOtnL5
I slid off the stool and walked out towards the balcony. The weather was amazing today, the lawn was a luscious green and the breeze had a slight chill. It wasn't humid and sticky like it had been over the past few weeks.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFd8RgVa2r9
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg6NKOdRqbe
I understood I would always be kept out of the inner workings of the organization. It didn't take a genius to piece together that I was living under the watch of a mafia boss. I had signed away my freedom to live a life of secrecy and security forever. There were days were I regretted ever signing the contract and other days I was grateful because I did have so much more than before.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhFu9BG2MIW
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKGXWaQe5My
I couldn't entirely blame my brother for becoming involved with them. Before he died, we were starting to see an increase in some of the money he was bringing home. I tried to not question him too much but had chopped it up to him selling larger quantities of drugs.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGZOw3gVOf
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEdjCVNPZs8
He tried really hard to keep that part of him a secret. He knew I wasn't happy with his decisions, but I knew we needed the money to survive. We were barely afloat and without Josh, I would've ended up homeless if I didn't sign my life away.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBY3vohiLPY
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLVx3VoRX5
Kalon Wolfe may be a cold, heartless monster, but I couldn't find it in me to hate him.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ9o3kTBX87
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjzhSzCNd8t
"What's going on, Quinn?"392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmoP66ElIYR
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKonlFFlPFi
I looked back at Samuel as he stepped onto the balcony next to me and lit up a cigarette.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZUkr0pdGr4
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnyx0SxPmMN
"Just enjoying the weather."
He inhaled deeply. "Has Landon always been so protective of you?"392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡot0f56x3Zi
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqvnz4EIXq7
I looked at him, confused. "Protective?"392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwAP6gwkTgM
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyaawR8WiPg
"Yeah," He blew out a string of smoke rings. "Seems like he doesn't want you to know anything."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69OtWd5DN2
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk7tRCQBptC
"Well, I'm not an idiot about what goes on around here, but Landon is just trying to keep out of trouble.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5jYdRxchP
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvEzX0Jju2J
He nodded and took another drag. "I heard you got him into some deep shit with his brother and the boss."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe2kdjEkbN7
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxGvOqbLV7
"I was just trying to have some fun," I admitted and leaned onto the railing. "I wasn't trying to cause problems, but it got out of hand."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU8t6EliBf9
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtDkQipZhul
"Well, if you ever want to have real fun, I'm your man." Samuel laughed and smiled widely. 392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8V7xg3Y8le
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWrnSrf9LQj
"How so?" I asked, eyeing him curiously.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpe5ebEV9s
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZwoCsyiAJ
"The boys and I frequent a club downtown pretty often. It's basically just for the family and run by the organization only. You don't have to worry about causing a scene or putting the Wolfe name at risk."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL736EprjkT
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjgD3pGKSEj
This was news to me. "Anybody can go under contract then?"392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj8ucQnVaQO
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYkiLS1vHb8
"Yep," He grinned crookedly at me. "Even you, Quinn."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡojOloRv8GE
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡERPc4FN6Nj
"I don't want to piss anyone off, especially Ka- I mean, Mr. Wolfe."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXksFQI1cU
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEaAIqtGQg6
He rolled his eyes, "Kalon isn't even here and I'm sure Axel would be more than happy to keep an eye out for you. If shit goes south with the boss man, he'll get you out of it considering he's his right hand."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwN6YXUvUZ
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9grYE2gm14
"He's here?"392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwOgK1usvPR
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡce3ZASYGyB
"Mhmm," He said and blew out a heavy smoke cloud. "He got in last night and I'm sure he'd love to escort you there."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJc7L43udQd
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHruqWT3W9I
"What makes you say that?" I laughed.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckOiZgffHW
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOj5pYGj9Fr
He looked me up and down. "Don't be stupid."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY4ZqQXUraq
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK36vexTpJV
"Won't he be pissed though if he hears I'm there? Especially, after what happened the last time."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS0O2z32LOP
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfTXhNJjJxr
"As I said, Axel has his ways," He winked. "Don't worry about Mr. Wolfe, you deserve to have fun too."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS710Vmm8RS
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb1MRqEb04v
I nodded and looked back inside where Landon was sitting. He was staring back at me and seemed to have been watching the two of us the entire time.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIqosTU82II
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt3v8bbYbCm
"Don't worry about the kid," Samuel said when he noticed my gaze. "Jax is just protective of him."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡud1RJg5DnI
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIiiFkQdnv2
"Okay," I muttered and looked back up at him. "When can we go?"392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbuKhvZeH4c
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0PoRlHhqKo
_392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjRiToCo7Va
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGzVsIDVUHL
"Keep up, Quinn!"392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUr1uknlQf
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ71i967nkZA
I felt my ankle snap to the side as I tried to pick up my speed and silently cursed Samuel under my breath. I don't know why I decided to wear death trap shoes again, but I knew I would be paying for it by the end of the night.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvEHlPJaTvy
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVuGTMdXEL3
"You could walk slower!" I huffed at him.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIuozZiMe1x
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUDRTVDRIB
Samuel had decided to rope Finn and Liam into our trouble tonight and the plan was to meet Axel at the front so no problems were getting inside. Apparently, the club was Wolfe territory only aside from a few partners Kalon had close ties with.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkfoI0ll9xw
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm44BjcGkef
Liam kicked a rock back in my direction. "Pick better shoes, princess."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8zCMtIpHyu
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8q3eVtkPPa
"Dick!"392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyFIFK1F3ZK
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhMlJ3DPfzv
The four of us made our way up to what looked like an abandoned factory warehouse. There were no cars and from what I could see and hear, everything looked to be quiet and dark.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5UeYfVq3l1
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡndFE5zzaXz
"Are we at the right place?" I asked as we rounded the corner.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSyPdpoOPx1
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡagtl2dliU6
"Yes, Quinn," Samuel muttered as we came to a stop in front of a door. We watched as he rapped against the metal door several times.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwSg7qdC3NT
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡffi4mJCQzc
A little piece of metal slid back at the top of the door. Flashing strobe lights pooled through along with heavy EDM playing in the background.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHNkbYzCAl
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc52GeYHTwA
"Where's Axel?" Samuel said and flashed what looked like an ID.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2x4BCYNKyS
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPFmPcRscH
The opening shut again and a series of locks could be heard unlocking before the door groaned open and a very familiar face stepped out onto the steps. 392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnauRJyAes
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzdSNFPwR5K
Axel smiled widely and pushed back his dark locks from his face. A five o'clock shadow covered his jaw and he was dressed in a simple white tee and jeans.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3N4iPGweFX
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLsHjoArrBb
It was weird to see anyone who worked with Kalon dressed in something so normal.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjfbsM45woE
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGzrVNP82e
"Ahh! Look who you brought with you!" He cheered and reached out to grasp my hands. "How have you been?"392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyj0a1bZq4A
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx10jZz7ZPl
I blushed a bit when I caught his mismatched eyes roaming over my red velvet dress. "I've been okay, just working."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTTtP5O7xxm
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLmK10oVMkd
"Kalon did say you were doing wonderful," He praised and popped a toothpick between his lips. "I bet working for him has been an adventure already."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgNDkPrbGor
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpmvdUKCLhh
"You could say that."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvqdVjLNaLg
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0r4iZD9QBR
Axel grinned unevenly and brought my palm up to kiss it. "I'm so glad you are here."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoEC9QDrkqK
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRwHTyX6GW1
My stomach turned with anticipation as his lips brushed my skin softly. His dark hair hung loosely in front of his eyes. He looked so much better than I had remembered.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxwQSbLtGAn
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNIXooTAR2
"Me too."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ3BWlYycqR
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcY4Nbhe3Kh
"Alright, kids," Samuel fake gagged. "Let's get inside because daddy needs a drink."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBuVDA7lmpk
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQJCv9MzR2
Axel stepped back to pull the door open and let the four of us step inside. You never would've known that we were walking into a club until the doors opened.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBSuSQAzEI1
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfr7iCFR25Z
It looked just like a normal strip club. The front was lined with a bar and there was a stage in the middle of the room where several girls were dancing topless. Men were crowded around the stages, tossing money and slamming back shots.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVNTFxQpTho
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZRZxOJ4TvW
I could already make out a few familiar faces from some of the men I would see come in and out of the home or chauffering Kalon around when he wasn't in the mood to drive one of his sports cars.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ65KWcv0P9E
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlG8hoVazhj
"This is Kalon's?" I said to Axel and he nodded.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAD5YdcFt1i
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrq75YEjgqU
"His dad owned a lot of businesses before everything was handed down after he passed away. He used to primarily invest in clubs and casinos because the money was good and easy to conceal."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNXLiFrVGES
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKGhmSD4esW
"Money laundering?" I laughed.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLOhAcULHYj
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡik7maQNbAS
"Smart girl," He winked. "It's just business, doll. I'm sure by now you've been able to piece together the kind of business Kalon enjoys involving himself in."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIF8opW6gw3
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzC5PMwinq3
"Seems like a lot to handle."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqONRRrjfJj
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4R4qAz0XD4
"Yeah, but that's why you get guys like me involved." He winked and playfully bumped my shoulder. "Want a drink?"392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjAmgdExzlf
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgnGYfOP4nb
"Who am I to say no?" I laughed and he pulled me along by my hand. The lights cast shadows across our faces as the strobe danced to the beat. Girls on the stage were now crawling across the stage in tiny panties as men hungrily tossed money at them.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY3El78WuDi
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6IMYXLPcf4
"Two!" Axel yelled over the bass to the bartender. The two of us slid onto the stools together and leaned in close. "I'm really glad you came tonight, Robbie. I've been thinking about you a lot."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0fkHmXURR9
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmppRgIHzEi
"Is that so?" I teased and took the shot glass from him.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlKcDPMv1OB
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKNJcqSbNZ8
We clinked the tiny cups together and knocked them back. The brown liquid burned my throat as it trickled down. Axel smirked a bit at my reaction and signaled for two more.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6XfQuIkKDY
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQp87aNX0j2
"Why didn't you text me?" He asked and handed me the second shot.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbtVZs9h1LB
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcdYa26HPwT
My cheeks blushed. "I'm sorry...I just-"392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMupqh74Qjc
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxT4j6Rs17q
He put his hand up. "Don't apologize, Robbie. I know I came on strong and it's weird considering the position I'm in."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXx0T5jCw0
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEGukmA4NdM
I nodded a bit and looked out at the club floor where I could see the boys hollering at the naked girls on the stage.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1NfdBlYqP2
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjU5LnVxtCE
Axel continued, "I just want my intentions to be clear. I know I seem like a real lady killer, but I'm a gentleman at heart and very shy." He winked playfully and knocked his glass against mine again.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4cH32AZM4h
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqCD3nwyFZA
"A true gentleman you say?" I mimicked him and knocked the second one back. My head was already rushing from the alcohol hitting so fast.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqXWR4cGepk
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiiRrkXVGQ3
"Another?" Axel piped and motioned for the bartender.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP4psHrHkaV
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsnL545bKH9
I laughed and shook my head. "Are you trying to get me trashed? I don't want to get myself into too much trouble with your cousin."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdn6KdKyWd
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGgkfgyFnew
He rolled his eyes and tinked his glass on mine again. "Let me handle him."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ907mRDLAtE

"Are the two of you close?"392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpgcfVj8nn
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGtSoxJeYBf
He shrugged a bit, "I wouldn't say we are necessarily close, but really we don't have any other family. Kalon's been kind of on his own since he was a teenager, all of the family that does exist resides in Russia and they just tend to keep him at an arms distance."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1F0VLyE7z
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCy8DxinTTu
"What about you?" 392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWiODdeAtDA
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBro9XOVUd
"Nothing interesting," He sighed and leaned back against the bar. "I've been an orphan since my parents died when I was ten, so I stayed with an aunt before Kalon's father took me in at sixteen. I kind of bounced around for a while though."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡanw0xwxueg
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvu0BzbT4z
"Do you enjoy working with him?" I eyed him curiously.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡueZs5GnJOJ
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2AErVDRjhu
"The money is nice and I don't really have to step in unless necessary, so I just get to drink and party whenever I want."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLV8BZV61zT
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnuhMXbehuZ
"Sounds like the life." 392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjb55U0QvmI
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC220Jubitr
"It's not all it seems," He murmured and let his eyes wander over me again. "Sometimes you get really lonely."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHptkMiMmY
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3nXKY11Ali
I stared back at Axel and felt a new level of confidence take over me. My head was absolutely wrecked from the liquor and he is one smoking hot man.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11hPv3SbMg
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdHawwB1AI
I leaned in closer to him and smirked. "You poor thing."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLfLBpjfL4
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydQYKJhf2o
He continued to let his eyes slowly undress me layer by layer. I could feel my insides squirming like mad and my legs clenched from the uncomfortable desire building at my core.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1UZxGMnxrX
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLcGgjpSwnk
"Want to get out of here?" He whispered lowly. His lips just inches away from my own.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz48HhNRQhR
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3JVGXHVQYP
I started to nod and slid off the stool but was suddenly stopped when a girl I've never met before came running up to us with Liam.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡekZUM2hWLw
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8GyrOETdW
"Oh my gosh, you are stunning!" She slurred out and tossed her arms around me. "I'm so glad to see another girl in the group."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmv8v5ho0W0
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡULFsYhXL6x
"I'm sorry?" I laughed as she pulled away. 392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3KEaSs8zxS
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrBcFfRHEnz
She was breath-taking and honestly seemed a little out of Liam's league. Her eyes were bright blue which contrasted beautifully against her midnight black hair. I noticed she was dressed in just a skimpy black lingerie set and heels.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiEWPkEektl
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsTtJh7afrM
"I'm sorry! I'm Liam's girlfriend, Maria, it's so nice to meet you. The boys mentioned you a few times, but I just never have a chance to go to the actual manor." She gushed and looked up at Liam with a girly grin.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqVL0cSty1B
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfgLCuFPkgW
"You work for Kalon Wolfe?"392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡanVNWvg1Ko
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0q04FK1oYr
She nodded eagerly. "I do! All of us girls that dance here are directly employed through him. Are you not one of his girls? I haven't seen you here so I wasn't-"392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKt3xeG4b5w
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQNaAHcmIHm
Axel cut her off, "She's not a dancer, doll."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83pc1IAyly
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzD3vzYP4H
Maria looked over at him and the girly grin disappeared immediately. I looked curiously between the two of them as the intense staredown continued before she dropped the topic.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVQQBVvVaU
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ12vREYSzbQ
"Anyways, it is a pleasure to meet you! If you ever want to dance, feel free to join us. The money is great and the men would love you." She said and reached out to hug me again.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtsYV37saE
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvqaKV4Fwnt
"O-oh, well, thank you. It was nice meeting you, Maria."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY6QLoufNc9
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6DWqIElV49
We watched as she walked back towards the stage with Liam. The boys were all still crowded around the same spot as before, drooling over the girls who decided to give them a sliver of attention.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡERpmNDa9G0
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡleX2pcCg4V
"What was that about?" I asked Axel, noticing he was still staring at them too.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNc8uDm1DH1
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDLGM6Hpxx1
He shook his head. "Don't worry about it."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxcyM0By7wS
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc9hfHZHdaN
"Seems like Maria isn't a fan?" I teased and leaned against the bar. 392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKUnwf3Q8DH
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxx1yJoC5tk
"Probably because she's my ex-girlfriend."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZnw9Fe3mO
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXOS0Yt0HzU
My jaw dropped. "You dated Maria?"392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXy4BruAEvf
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKHBcQ68kls
"Am I too ugly for her?" He scoffed and ordered two more drinks.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKoXk9M74U1
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6PIMY5cdD4
"No, I just would've thought with Lia-"392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8SyhgZDzE1
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUaODAItmiZ
He stopped me. "Some of them have been around for a while, but not staying with Kalon. There are a lot of people involved in this, Quinn. More than your little mind could comprehend."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8tddmoaaX
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTSU83Iyj21
"Try me.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbDvh94ALjS
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPJPD9bMRnA
He smirked at me and looked behind him. "Maybe another time."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4HZgy5MCnj
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6XzfOwYen
"Quinn! Get your ass up there!"392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIlB16aSbDo
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfOVLG2atmd
I spun around on my chair to see the boys were waving me down and pointing to the stage. Apparently, they were inviting anyone who wanted to dance onto the stage and I, of course, was nominated considering I was the only girl that wasn't a stripper.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5n6qVNV24
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYHmHNMnTPu
"No!No!" I waved back at them and laughed.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuck4BSysIW
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1dc5d6pYg1
Finn rushed up to me and hooked me by the arm. "Please! Maria is up there and she just will not shut up about you."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡawxRIALl3A
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhpqDVhDAKb
I rolled my eyes. "Finn, I can't fucking dance. Look at me, I have nothing to show and no rhythm."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9d7MuAKV8w
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6LWaxlNkT
He looked me up and down a little too long before a weird-ass smile crept across his face. "You got this, Quinn! I know you are always down for something fun."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtasWmynNR8
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpRXFj4Hpt
"You're so lucky I am drunk as hell."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3Owb0ulzD
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG8vkf2Kgrg
I walked up to the stage where Maria was dancing wildly all over the stage to some pop music with about five other, half-naked girls. They all looked to be completely hammered and the men were just eating them up.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGBkuDLoZIz
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1h638RhCB7
Maria pulled me up onto the stage next to her and placed her hands on my hips as we ground together. I could hear the guys around us hollering and shouting out nasty remarks to us as we continued to move together. The strobe lights danced on our skin and lit up the stage around us in bright flashes.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFIR5r18p4
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIl83JruLVT
I could barely focus on her face or keep my balance, but it felt so right to be moving and every part of my being was alive.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡptezzzH5Ld
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyglLDsjNza
"Take it off, baby!"392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy9feCeQkj8
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Yj3sqv3v0
Maria giggled and griped the pole next to us before twirling around it with one leg and dropping to the floor in a full split.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN6PqKY97XV
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUF16Yc5pcj
I grabbed the pole above her and did my best to sway around the pole as seductively as I could manage. She slid up between my arms and moved her body against mine slowly as the two of us synchronized our movements.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZf2FvINuL
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgTgFsZ9Gre
"Come on, Quinn! Show us what you are hiding."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHF2plB1XTD
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF54as9TIOI
I peered out into the dark crowd and realized Axel was the one who was shouting at me now. Even in the poor light, I could easily make out the sly-ass grin playing on his face.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtxopPhkJuo
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxNP7y3hgNC
"Fuck it!" I muttered and reached down to pull my dress off.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9RstXNROeG
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdpoL7BwhHx
I felt myself start to stumble to the side before Maria helped pull it the rest of the way off and tossed it to the side. The two of us giggled together and started to dance around the pole again.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXBaWzNizq
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNQwcJesEvV
It felt so weird actually stripping in front of so many people down to just my bra and panties. My mind was screaming at me to stop, but another part of me felt so fucking exhilarated.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCPzCLcXIwe
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1S10UzyvdC
Maria moved to the floor and started crawling along the stage to collect bills. I decided this would be a good time to really go all in and twirled around the pole again before reaching back to unfasten my bra.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBAxKe55TLx
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmA54vU7rmW
I felt so good. I felt so alive and so-392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMgeS3bElv1
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvnUFb2xwZ
*BANG* *BANG* 392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPo8YpmrtiE
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3SCo0mbwo
Everyone started to scream as the sound of gunfire sounded loudly throughout the club. Chaos erupted as the girls on the stage started to run towards a backdoor and several people around us were already pulling out guns of their own.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLsnDC9LVk
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPCVWzOKtq
"Turn the fucking music off now!"392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxLdmqQHmZD
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdc5yvRxq3p
My heart stopped when I heard his voice boom over the music. Everybody stopped moving immediately. The lights turned all the way back on and I felt him staring me down before I even found him charging at me.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFo7nwycjio
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjlfPSNAcXM
"Hey man, li-" Axel started but Kalon pushed him roughly to the side. His steel-grey eyes were locked on me and he looked furious.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCsZpzodfS
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZgVI7LylFx
I grabbed my dress off the floor and tried to pull it over my head just as I felt his hand grab me by the arm and yank me off the stage.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzLVwBPc7xa
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9TMuhMw8Bz
"Get dressed now," He snapped roughly and shoved me into a booth. "The club is closed. Everyone needs to be out of here in ten minutes."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwnYp0VEALT
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSBFirM3dJm
Nobody said a word or even dared to argue with him. I pulled my dress back onto my body and watched in silence as everyone started to exit as quickly as they could before Kalon decided to fire off any additional bullets.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0S0HoBwp9U
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSy2vaSUD7Q
I looked up at him and held my breath. Kalon looked down at me with rage very clear on his features. He looked so beautiful but was the scariest I had ever seen him.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26w4gVnzBk
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6tDsoIDrE
"Get up and go."392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCbE6vLjBia
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF5TcsJ72M4
I nodded and stood. I felt so low and defeated. I had fucked up again.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW8FioIiOpz
392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0cuz7vW31C
I'm so fucking dead.392Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAP9GR3H1dW
